Here are a few snippets from the interview:
Jill on motherhood:
"Motherhood is getting your hands and your feet in the soil…When Jett puts my face in his hands and tells me, 'Mommy you're so pretty' or smells me, it's so wonderful."
Jill on being a single-mom:
"That I-can-do-it-by-myself mentality is a lie. I'm sorry if I hurt anybody's feelings, but you cannot do it all by yourself. You need a village: some aunties, grandmoms, friends. I couldn't do this by myself and would be a fool to think I could."

ReplyDeleteFirst Jill looks gorgeous. I love her reply on being a single motherhood as an unwed mother I understand her completely. It definitely takes a village to help your raise your kid. You cannot do it all or by yourself.
